Description
Fire Safety Engineering: Design of Structures provides guidance on the design structures which will withstand the effects of fire. It covers everything from design and design philosophies, regulatory control, the characteristics of natural fires, through to the properties of different materials at elevated temperatures.
Focusing on the fire sections of the Structural Eurocodes, the book provides detailed design advice on each of the main structural elements -- concrete, steel, steel-concrete composites, timber, and masonry, aluminium, plastics and glass.
